Palm Rescue 850: Professional life jacket with a patented adjustable UCLan harness

Palm Rescue 850: An Excellent Choice for Water Rescue Personnel

The Palm Rescue 850 represents the pinnacle of personal flotation device (PFD) design for professional teams, instructors, and specialists in whitewater and swiftwater rescue. It combines uncompromising strength, maximum safety features, and high comfort for all-day use in the field.

UCLan Adjustable Harness and Safe Quick-Release

A key feature of the vest is its advanced rescue equipment:

• Patented UCLan size-adjustable chest harness (GB2492084): The quick-release harness with a 50mm strap allows for easy and quick size adjustment for different users without the need to cut or complicatedly shorten the straps (known as "clean tail release").
• Controlled anchoring: It ensures a secure connection of the tow rope (cowtail) and reliable operation of the emergency release in an emergency.

Cordura® 500D, high buoyancy, and removable leg straps

The vest is designed to withstand the roughest conditions in the riverbed:

• 500D CORDURA® outer fabric: The extremely durable 100% nylon reliably withstands abrasion from rocks, concrete, and rescue equipment.
• Eco-Friendly Gaia Foam: It provides high and reliable buoyancy (from 70 N to 90 N, depending on size) and is completely free of toxic PVC.
• Stability in the current: The 3D anti-ride-up waist belt keeps the vest securely low on the torso, and for maximum safety when swimming in strong currents, you can also use the removable leg straps.
• High-quality hardware: Components made of 7075 aluminum alloy and shoulder straps tested to 3.2 kN ensure maximum strength.

Well-designed pockets, a knife sheath, and SOLAS reflective strips

Vesta offers a complete range of equipment for organizing rescue gear:

• Two front zippered pockets and a back Velcro pocket: A well-organized space for storing essential gear.
• Easy-access knife sleeve: Instant and safe access to a rescue knife.
• Safety features: SOLAS high-visibility reflective tape, built-in whistle, unique inventory ID, and practical parking clips for the cowtail.
• Buckle-front entry: The front opening with a sturdy buckle allows for quick donning and fastening, even when wearing thick gloves.

• Swiftwater Rescue / SRT: Rescue operations in moving water, belaying, working with tow ropes, and emergency situations.
